DATA HARNESS
This connector links the remote start module to your vehicle's computer data networks (CAN bus) & immobilizer system. It allows the system to communicate with the factory electronics for fully integrated remote starting, convenience, and security functions.
ANALOG INPUT & OUTPUTS
This connector provides multiple wires for vehicle specific applications and additional features like door, hood, and trunk monitoring, trunk release, horn honk, and many other functions. It gives the installer flexibility to program and tailor circuits for each unique application.
MAIN HARNESS
This connector handles the systems main power and basic control wires for your remote start system. It supplies constant battery power, ground, and handles other essential functions that allow the module to control your vehicle.
HIGH CURRENT RELAY
This heavy-duty connector manages high-power outputs like the starter, ignition, and accessory circuits that are needed to crank and run the engine during remote start. It contains built-in relays so the system can safely handle the large electrical loads required for starting your car.
FUSE DOOR
The DS4 module contains several on-board fuses that protect both the system and vehicle from electrical overloads or shorts. These include a 5A main control module fuse, along with 15A, 20A, and 30A fuses that safeguard the high-current outputs such as the starter, ignition, accessory, parking lights, and other programmable options.
